One of the biggest problems I have faced before flipping my class is that I have students of every level in every class. This meant I had students that understood material with one example, some that "got it" after two or three examples, and some that I always had to work with individually, no matter how much explanation or examples were given. With the flipped class, I am meeting the needs of all the students at their own pace. I am free to spend more time with students that need more help, and those who understand the material quickly can move on to other areas where they struggle. I see the flipped classroom as a valuable tool in the World Language classroom. One of the biggest struggles for WL teachers is spending as much time as possible in the target language during class time.

Teaching grammar concepts can be very difficult to do in the target language. By removing these lessons from "class time", more time is available for the students to interact and practice in the target language. SIMILITUDINI E DIFFERENZE TRA LA FLIPPED CLASSROOM E LA KHAN ACADEMY

"For me, the beauty of the flipped classroom lies in the simple realization that instruction can take place in different mediums. We are no longer limited to a class period or a physical classroom. We have the opportunity to match the instructional activity with the environment that makes the most sense. "This flexibility is why technology has the potential to be so transformative in education. The goal of the flipped classroom should be to shift lessons from “consumables” to “produceables.” Students today must be generators and producers. They must be able to question, problem solve, think outside of the box, and create innovative solutions to be competitive and successful in our rapidly changing global economy." Fasi di lavoro
